Complete omega po rip off. Doesn't even work well. The bezel is too loud, needs a bore subtle dial. Loud bezel with loud dial that doesn't match. Not a fan.

TigerUKI personally have the Omega so I can't speak to the bezel on this watch, but my Omega has very distinct clicks on the bezel.
It's obviously a given that the Omega is better, but a decent Seiko movement, sapphire crystal and 300m in a good looking case for $400 or around 1/10 what I spent on my Omega seems okay to me.

TigerUKPlease, do tell me what aspects of this are a "ripoff" of the PO? I mean, other than it being a diver watch with a blue face and orange bezel? Or does the fact that Omega used that color scheme mean it's off limits for other watches? Is that seriously your position?

watcherinoIt resembles too much like a po. People look at it from afar and assume it's a, po. Ask "hey is it a po" you reply no this is a heuey and leuey. Then they have a dussapointed look on their face as you explain you paid 500 dollars for a, watch with no history

WOScopeSorry I meant loud as in the design, colour. Not noise.

TigerUKSo, don't buy watches from young companies, even if it isn't a "rip-off" like you first said, because your acquaintances may be stupid and judgmental?
I'd rather have THIS watch than YOUR social circle.

watcherinoStop resorting to personal insults. There are many independent watches that use seiko movements. The difference is they don't go into the market at 600 bucks (their pre discount price). These prices are just delusional for what it is. The bezel is awful, the dual is awful and the two combo do not go together and makes it awful

TigerUKI have insulted no one, except maybe the people you are afraid of disappointing. That's no ad hominem, friend, so your Reddit rules of argument don't apply.
But now you've gone from "it's a ripoff" to "it's not a ripoff, but I feel bad," to "it's overpriced and ugly."
Pick a reason for your arbitrary hate, please. It's getting hard to keep track.
